Revamped RIBA Cafe at 66 Portland Place available for event hire

RIBA at 66 Portland Place has added another new event space to its inventory following the revamp of its onsite café. The RIBA Cafe has undergone a makeover and the new tranquil space is now available to hire outside of normal opening hours for relaxed evening receptions and as a VIP area for larger events.

Situated on the ground floor of the Art Deco building looking out towards the tree-lined Portland Place, the RIBA Cafe is a bright, modern space featuring vintage detailing, clean lines and neutral walls with prints from the RIBA Collection decorating the space, and the warming tones of grey, gold, rich green and black.

With comfy sofas and informal seating areas, this serene, welcoming space is the ideal setting for a relaxed evening reception, networking event or intimate launch, or it can be used as a breakout space or VIP area for larger events, outside of its public opening hours (Mon-Fri, 8.30am-4pm).

Thomas Morgan, Head of Venues and Events Delivery at RIBA at 66 Portland Place, comments: “We’re really happy with the outcome of our recent refurbishment of the RIBA Cafe. It’s a great, accessible space on the ground floor of the building and with the new colour palette and décor, we’ve created a more modern, welcoming setting for evening events.

“Being able to offer a variety of event spaces to suit different needs and requirements is really important to us, and the new-look RIBA Cafe is the perfect addition to our existing event spaces.”
